Kieran/Contacts

Ambrosine — The Baronette. Ethereal. Beautiful. Personable and friendly. So very, very dangerous. If you don't believe in love at first sight, don't look in her direction. If you do believe... definitely don't look in her direction. I may have to see about getting back out to the islands. To keep an eye on her, of course.

Caressa — Smart, in firm control of her life, and happy with her family situation. Owns a place called Steamed & Hammered, and OMG, do they make awesome stuffed mushrooms. Still, she's one of the lost sheep of the family, so she's someone to look after and take care of, not the other way 'round. Which is fine, I don't mind stepping up to undo the mistakes made by idiots that aren't here to fix their own crap.

Dasia — You know, she can come off a bit snooty sometimes, but once you get her out away from the normies, she loosens up pretty well. Don't believe anything she says about Philban, though. That guy's dangerous when he's got a probe...

Deirdre — A true Navy Seal. Or something. Has a boat! I may need to go see it some time.

JJ — My absolute fucking heroin. No, wait, heroine! That 'e' is damned important, isn't it? Saved one of the only two possessions I give much of a crap about in this world, and I will forever owe you one. Also, I love the shop, and can't wait to see what becomes of the other shop.

Persy & Clem — Ah, the sisters. As salt-and-pepper as they are, they've both got good hearts and clever minds, and it's a joy to see that. Even if one of them's Seelie. Owners of terribly interesting knitting, too, and the teas. Mmmm, to die for. Or live for! Hard to drink tea when you're dead! And if it's not, don't tell me.

Sark — Decent enough guy, I think. Wise beyond his years in the ways of judging stuffed mushrooms. Definitely someone to hang out with more often. [Feb 22 Update:] AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. I should totally never ever ever ever ever make Mothra jokes.

Sebastian — I told you: it's always the quiet ones.

Stella — Seriously, girl, what the what? I'm supposed to be the supernaturally madcap one here, what is this ukulele-on-the-beach, oh-shit-you-broke-my-brain Dynamic Duo crap, already? This is what I get for associating with someone from the Land of Sasquatch, isn't it? Still the only one allowed to do that thing nobody else is allowed to do. That totally doesn't come across as weird or cryptic, right? Never change, you beautiful maniac!

Trace — You know what you did! Who knows, maybe you'll do it again, too!

Trishna — Another co-conspirator, and such a wonderful one. If I can figure out a way to tie this whole thing together, we could take over the world! Or, you know, maybe just a tequila bar.

The Bartender — One of my favorite people, no matter where I meet them.
